Needing some help beyond gathering beautiful visuals for your home?
A redesigned sitting room for adult entertaining, keeping the silk wallpaper but enhancing the brightness in the room with pale curtains elegantly finished with a border, and ‘bomb proof’ fabrics and a balance of patterns to ensure against marks from the family dog, and guests!
There is a curious modern belief that, thanks to Pinterest boards and Instagram saves, we should all be capable interior designers. Yet anyone who has found themselves paralysed by 39 shades of white paint or debating the merits of brass versus bronze taps at midnight will know otherwise.
Designing a home well is about far more than assembling a collection of attractive things. It requires vision, restraint, technical know-how and, perhaps more importantly, the ability to see how hundreds of individual decisions come together to create a space that feels effortless. That is precisely why many homeowners turn to Kelling Designs.
Our ethos is to create interiors that are polished without being precious, elegant without feeling formal, and above all, deeply personal. Rather than imposing a house style, we work with you to understand how you entertain, relax, work and spend time as a family. The result is something that should be authentic to you, and not a showroom interpretation of current trends.
A hallmark of Kelling Designs is that the most successful interiors are rarely built from scratch. A cherished antique inherited from a grandparent, a favourite armchair, a collection gathered over years of travel and often the key to giving a home its soul. We love to weave old and new together, creating rooms that feel layered, collected and quietly confident rather than overly decorated.
Equally important is the attention to detail. Whilst anyone can choose a sofa, it is the thoughtful consideration of lighting, joinery, upholstery, trims and finishes that elevates a room from pleasant to exceptional. These are the elements homeowners often overlook, yet they are precisely what makes a scheme feel coherent, comfortable and complete.
Perhaps the greatest luxury Kelling Designs offers is peace of mind. Moving home, renovating or redecorating can be exhilarating, but it can also be overwhelming. Having an experienced team to guide decisions, solve problems and bring clarity to the process allows our clients to enjoy the creative journey rather than be consumed by it.
Our support can also help make pragmatic, practical and economic decisions, that free up your budget to spend on the things that really feel exciting and make a difference - aspects that will stand out and make something even more special about the overall look and feel.
We want you to be proud of your home and share it with your friends and family - because a beautifully designed home should not only look good, but make life feel better too!
Get in touch if you are wavering, or overwhelmed with decision-making. We can help with a few hours of consultancy to nudge you on, or get more involved to shape the vision and design, and handle the boring, detailed and time consuming administrative aspects of delivery.
